| Plinius amp and Conrad-Johnson 16LS I've used the Plinius SA100MKIII with an Audio Research LS16 and the Reference Two. Both tube preamps sounded wonderful with the Plinius. Great bass with very clear defined highs. Never bright or fatiguing. I have not heard the Plinius with the CJ... | |
| Just purchased Wilson Maxx's. Now what ?? Amps? At The Tuscany Hotel during this year's T.H.E. Show (CES) had a pair of Halcro dm58 monoblocks hooked-up to the Wilson Maxx's. It was my favorite room. The folks in the room who were listening actually clapped after the demo. They played cd's, ree... | |
| Which CDs to test a component? Eric Clapton-Unplugged. On the first track, the percussionist Ray Cooper is hitting a triangle. It should sound clearly like a triangle. This gives me a good impression on the distinctness and clarity of the high range.Neville Marriner and the Aca... | |
| Transparent Audio IC's and Speaker Cable I agree with Mg123. I auditioned Transparent Music Wave, Super's and Ultra's. I was quite disappointed mainly because I found they lost detail in the higher ranges (clipping). I had NBS Monitor IV (and tried Monitor III's) ic's and speaker cables ... | |
| Audio tip for aging male audiophiles Using vibrapods under your head when trimming your ear hair helps lower the noise floor. I've replaced the battery with a King Cobra Powersnake on my Panasonic nose and ear trimmer and even my wife noticed the difference. | |

| Copy-protected CDs - Technical discussion I experienced clicks, pops and an occassional (faint) white noise when I burned a Mozart CD. I tried a few different approaches and found when I extract the cd's music files onto the hard drive and burned the cd from the hard drive instead of the ... | |
| Any audio gifts for Christmas? After purchasing a new Plinius SA250MKIV for my birthday in September, it only seemed fitting to upgrade my Audio Research Reference One to a Reference Two MKII for the holiday season. Helllloo midrange! Also got new dive gear: BC, regulator, comp... | |

| Where R U????? If you look at a map of California and find Yosemite National Park, I'm at the ten o'clock position in the town of Twain Harte in the beautiful Sierra Mountains. Audiophiles? We don't have no stinking audiophiles. Actually, there are 3 audiophiles... | |
